Dear
Friend,
Epilepsy is, in many ways, our family business. My mother, my two children, and I all have epilepsy. Thanks to research, my son and I are seizure-free today, but my daughter Mila’s journey has been much harder — a powerful reminder of why we must invest in research. ([link removed])
For years, we struggled to control Mila’s seizures. We felt stuck in an exhausting cycle of trial and error, with no clear solution in sight. Eventually, we discovered that a Low Glycemic Diet, paired with a low-dose of Keppra, could stabilize her blood sugar and reduce her seizures. Mila has gone from weekly seizures to having just a handful over the past few years.
Mila, age 3, with her mom, Sharon, at the hospital. Sharon is pregnant with Mila's little brother, Cameron.
Mila’s journey shows us that every case of epilepsy is unique, and there’s still so much work to be done. Much like venture capitalists, who invest in big ideas that may fail but may change the world, CURE Epilepsy takes calculated risks, funding early-stage research that could save lives and bring seizure freedom to the 1 in 3 people with epilepsy living with uncontrolled seizures. We must take these chances if we’re going to get closer to a cure.
For my family and for the 3.4 million Americans and 65 million people worldwide living with epilepsy—your support matters. Please join me and my family in making a gift to CURE Epilepsy today. ([link removed])
With gratitude and hope,
Adam Schneider
